ST CYRIL'S CHILDREN & YOUTH PROJECT
Charity number: 1136123
Website: www.sccypkids.org.uk
Description:
SCCYP was set up in 1992 by Sister Mary Goretti in St Cyril's Parish Church to provide positive activities and opportunities for local children as there was a severe lack of local facilities.
Sister Mary wanted to help children and young people develop and learn through a variety of play opportunities, and we continue to do this through to the present time.
We were successful in securing three years lottery funding in 1999 and since then have proven to be sustainable by continuing to raise funds from a wide variety of trusts and organisations to continue our much-needed service.
Aims & Objectives
To develop a range of play facilities for children and young people in the local surrounding areas.
To work with existing voluntary and statutory organisations providing play facilities; offering support and training where relevant to those organisation.
To develop the skills, confidence of parents and other volunteers; supporting them in the provision of good quality facilities.
To ensure equality of opportunity is available to all and that both children and adults can function in a safe environment.
